Megyn Kelly is opening up about being played by Charlize Theron in the upcoming Fox News drama film Bombshell.
The former NBC News talk show host, 48, told the Daily Mail she didn’t “know anything about” the film as she and her husband Douglas Brunt headed to the wedding of Fox News contributor Guy Benson and Adam Wise.
While Kelly hasn’t seemed to catch up with the film, which released a teaser trailer last month, she didn’t seem to mind who was playing her.

Rep. Ilhan Omar praised Fox News on Monday after the network publicly rebuked host Jeanne Pirro.
“Thank you, @FoxNews,” Omar tweeted. “No one’s commitment to our constitution should be questioned because of their faith or country of birth.”
Pirro suggested on her show Saturday night that the Minnesota congresswoman’s Muslim faith might make her less loyal to the United States.

“This is not who your party is. Your party is not anti-Israel, she is. Think about this. She is not getting this anti-Israel sentiment doctrine from the Democrat Party,” Pirro said. “So if it’s not rooted in the party, where is she getting it from? Think about it.

Fox News condemned its own Jeanine Pirro over comments the host made Saturday that seemed to question the national loyalty of Rep. Ilhan Omar and other Muslim women who wear hijabs.
“We strongly condemn Jeanine Pirro’s comments about Rep. Ilhan Omar,” Fox News said in a statement last night. “They do not reflect those of the network and we have addressed the matter with her directly.”
Today, Omar thanked Fox News for its statement, tweeting, “Thank you, @FoxNews. No one’s commitment to our constitution should be questioned because of their faith or country of birth.”
Pirro made the offensive comments on her show Saturday. Referring to Rep. Oman, who is a practicing Muslim and wears a hijab, Pirro appeared to question Omar’s national loyalty on Saturday’s edition of her Justice show: “Think about it: Omar wears a hijab. Is her adherence to this Islamic doctrine indicative...

Fox News strongly condemned Jeanine Pirro late Sunday evening after the network host suggested that Rep. Ilhan Omar may not fully support the United States Constitution because she is a Muslim.
“We strongly condemn Jeanine Pirro’s comments about Rep. Ilhan Omar. They do not reflect those of the network and we have addressed the matter with her directly,” a network rep said. The rep did not respond to requests to elaborate on how the matter was addressed or whether any disciplinary action will be taken.
Pirro also released her own statement in which she offered no apology, but did clarify her intentions.
“I’ve seen a lot of comments about my opening statement from Saturday night’s show and I did not call Rep. Omar un-American. My intention was to ask a question and start a debate, but of course because one is Muslim does not mean you don’t support the Constitution,...

The New York Times is facing backlash about its latest hire to its editorial board, Sarah Jeong, after multiple old tweets about “white people” resurfaced within hours of her hiring on Wednesday.
In a litany of tweets dating from around 2014, some of which have been deleted, Jeong made a number of comments that critics said were racist and disparaging. “Oh man it’s kind of sick how much joy I get out of being cruel to old white men,” she said in one tweet — now deleted — but archived here.
“Dumbass f–ing white people marking up the internet with their opinions like dogs pissing on fire hydrants,” she in another.
